AAA on Televisa: 2013-01-26

Cuervo, Fabi Apache, Pimpinela Escarlata vs Halloween, Mari Apache, Polvo de Estrellas: ladies, if you get hit like Fabi got by Halloween here, and your boyfriend reacts as dispassionately as Cuervo did here, he may not be the one. It’s not like the Fabi/Cuervo romance would be working on it’s own, because Cuervo does not come across interested, but it looks absurd next to Halloween & Mari. Halloween is totally goofy, but he’s making a goofy effort. Cuervo does not seem to be making much of an effort in any way here. He’s not bad, like this match is not bad, but there’s nothing here that really worked.

Cibernético, El Mesías, La Parka vs Chessman, el Hijo del Perro Aguayo, Psicosis: crowd was way louder this match, which seemed to be both the crowd caring much more about the main event and someone turning a volume knob up way too high. Match itself was at the normal volume for an AAA main event – rudos attack, tecnicos make a comeback and all get in their spots, and finish. Notable for Perro actually taking a clean pinfall, but we’ll see if it resolves this year.
